When Eka first asked me to make her wedding invitation, I had just started my interest in Indonesian traditional patterns. I cannot believe that it took me a long time to realize it, but Indonesian traditional patterns are soooo pretty. I was particularly interested in Minang embroidery patterns and Andry just happened to come from Padang, isn't that just the sign? That was why I immediately decided that the design should have bold red color on it :)

I also really had fun designing this one as I was actually dying to make a non-floral invitation design. Don't get me wrong, my love for floral-themed design will never end. But I need a break, like real bad!

Anyhow, this was actually unplanned, but when we did a photo shoot for their pre-wedding pictures, we just realized that Eka's kebaya and Andry's batik just happened to be red.

Anyway, congratulation Eka & Andry. Wishing you guys the best of luck for your future endeavors, see you at the wedding!
